To you and I, and I alone--
Alone, my thoughts become my own
And I, to you, become unknown
Anonymously eclipse prone
Though stars forget the sky;
Too daft to sire siren song,
Too wise to simply sing along,
Too proud to forswear right for wrong
Too weak to fight becoming strong,
Too honest not to lie--
And words revolve around my head
A thousand things I wish I'd said
A thousand lines I'd never read
Where memory falters, heartache treads
And every different way:
For you're the sun that breaks the clouds
The breathless prayer we breathe aloud
The dazzling dream that stills the crowd
And all the things if so allowed
I say to you, again, again,
And each and every day.
